Hello -

Workspaces are just ways of organising your desktop so all the underlying
processes running on them are all in the same system, just on different
panes, so as Chrome is set up as your browser for handling URLs, a click
will pass the URL to the running copy, and the window handler manages it by
displaying the window where it is running. I find it frustrating and would
rather have it launch a window in the current workspace but I'm not sure if
that's even possible.
